BIRTHRIGHTS
Introduction
Ten years of earnest effort to collect and compile accurate information, relative to our antecedents. although partially successful, leaves much to be desired, particularly with regard to the Hunt side of the house.
Should the author of this manuscript be prevented from completing the work com - menced in 1920, it is hoped that some other member of the family will be sufficiently interested to carry on the task to completion.
For the Ives, Scott, and Farwell families may it be said that all connections shown in this memorandum are confirmed by documentary evidence. This fortunate condition is due to the care exercised by the early New England settlers in recording and preserving their family records.
Considerable difficulty has been experienced in obtaining documentary evidence with which to confirm the obvious connection between the Currawn and Limerick Hunts, because Irish records have from time to time been destroyed, particularly during the rebellions of 1798 and 1920-22. The theory that this connection does exist, is supported only by tradition, as verified by members of the Hunt families, in Canada and in Ireland, by similarity of family names, religion, habits of life, likes and dislikes, weaknesses and virtues, and striking family resemblances.
Should an opportunity be presented to some of the younger members of our family, to visit Ireland with time available for the task, may it be suggested that searches could be conducted in church and other records in localities undermentioned, for entries regarding Hunts, Gillans or any other family connected by marriage with ours
County Leitrim - Townlands of Currawn, Killeemane, Ruskanamona, (now Conboy), Clooncagh. Town of Mohill, Eskercullia, Knockadrinan, Cloontumper, Milreagh, Cloonmorris, Drumard, Magerrawn, Diocese of Kilmore, Parish of Mohill. County Council Chamber Carrickon-Shannon.
County Longford - Sandy Hill, for origin of the Gillans.
Counties of Tipperary and Limerick - For Hunt wills or agreements of sale, or land leases.
Registry of Deeds, Dublin - To ascertain location and nature of land leases or deeds for Currawn, County Carlow, Bellina vain, Castelridge.
The idea of starting a task of this nature was conceived at Moose Jaw. Saskatchewan in 1913, when a Miss Williams, (ac&ide11 of Chief Justice E. K. Williams of Winnipeg, Manitoba) whose mother was a Hunt, and a descendant of Captain John Hunt of the Army of Charles I, noticed the close resemblance of the writer to her Uncle Robert Hunt. Enquiries addressed to Ulster King of Arms in 1920 resulted in the provision of sufficient evidence to make possible a confirmation of Arms, by Ulster King of Arms to the descendants of John Hunt who came to Canada in 1932. These armorial bearings do not differ greatly from those granted to Sir De Vere Hunt, 1st Bart of Curragh Chase. born about 1750, and to those of Major Samuel Bradshaw Hunt, born 1840.
Since 1920 the facts set down in this memorandum have been gathered from various sources in England, Ireland and the United States of America; including: Public Records Office, London; Public Archives, Ottawa, Canada; New England Historical Genealogical Society, 9 Ashburton Place, Boston, Mass.; Parish of Mohill Church' Records; Public Records Office, Dublin, Ireland and Public Library, New York. Many Canadian relatives have cooperated in providing information relative to later generations, among whom may be mentioned:
Mrs. Len. Washer of Toronto (nee Ruth Ellis) of Ottawa, Canada.
Mrs. Edward Hawman of Powassan, Ont. (nee Mary Hunt)
Mrs. James Dempsey of Hurdman's Bridge, Ottawa. {nee Claire Gillan)
Mr. and Mrs. John Lewis Hunt of Galetta, Ontario.
Mrs. Minnie Daly of Mather, Man. (nee Minnie Hunt)
Mrs. T. Mason Talbot, B. A., of Winnipeg. (nee Lovisa Hunt)
Miss Mary Talbot, M.A., of Winnipeg, Man.
American cousins who have contributed are:
Mrs. Crossman Calvert of Binghamton, New York. (nee. Edith Hall)
Mr .. Charles Wesley Hunt of Randolph, Mass.
Mr. James E. Scott of Calistoga, California.
It is hoped that the facts here recorded may be a source of satisfaction and pride to those of this generation as well as to later ones.
Records pertaining to the four families bear no evidence of any member having been convicted of crime. It seems remarkable that the forebears of all four families - Hunt, Scott, Ives and Farwell apparently sprang from the same source. All four families seem to have res ponded in a similar manner to conditions imposed upon them by their rulers from the time of the Battle of Hastings (when they first appear in records) to the present time. Their movements and migrations in every case appear to have been initiated by a determination to enjoy freedom of thought and action.
May our children's children, exercise the same good judgment in the choice of life partners as that shown by our predecessors.

Chapter I
HUNT
The family name Hunt, like Hunter, Huntsman, John le Venner, or Richard Fenner, originated as a name given to professional followers of the chase. In the Knight's Tale, "the hunte and home and hounds beside him" are mentioned, and "The Hunte ystrangled with the Wilde heres". Forms like Walter Hunte or Nicholas le Hunte are very common in old English records. A compound of this family name "Borehunte" carries back to the days when wild boars ranged the forests of Merrie England. "Walter le Wolfe hunte" is another name mentioned in annals during the period of the Inquisition. A family of this name held lands in Derby- shire by the service of keeping the forest free from wolves.
In the forty-third year of the reign of Edward III. a Thomas Eugene Pitchley held land in the county of Northampton by the service of finding, at his own cost, certain dogs for the destruction of wolves and foxes in this country, and in Rutland, Oxford, Essex, and Buckingham counties.
As late as the eleventh year of the reign of Henry VI, Sir Henry Plimpton held a borate of land in Nottinghamshire by service of winding a horn to chase and frighten away the wolves in Sherwood Forest.
In parts of Ireland the name Hunt is the anglicized form of Feighry (O'Fiachra). In the districts surrounding Birr, Sligo town and Tubbercurry. In Sligo county, in Fermanagh and southern parts of Donegal, it is the anglicized form of Feighney (O'Fiachna), and of Feghany (0' Fiachna) in North Sligo; of o• Foy (O' Fiaich) in Limerick, Mayo and Galway; and of Mac Confiaich in County Mayo. The word fiach means a "hunt·• or a "chase".
We are told that the progenitor of the Hunt family was an officer in the Army of William the Conqueror. After the Battle of Hastings and the conquest of Erigland, for services rendered, he was granted lands in the north of Erigland. On these lands he settled down to peaceful pursuits, married a British maiden arid laid a foundation for the Hunt family.
About 1540 a member of the Hunt family travelled over England "working for the interests of common people". Tradition tells us that the Hunts served with Cromwell and took sides with the Puritans during the period in which the commons and the Lords were settlirig their differences.
The name Hunt first appears in New England history in the reign of James I and then in connection with the colonization of Virginia. During James I's reign many of the soldiers and sailors who in Queen Elizabeth's reign had been engaged in fighting her battles found themselves without employment. They had the choice of either engaging in the quarrels of other nations or incurring the hazards of the :-.Jew World, towards which all eyes were then turned by the return of Sir Walter Raleigh. Gosnold, a brave seaman whose ship we are told was the first one to sail directly across the Atlantic, interested three men, Edward Maria Wing field, a west of England merchant, Robert Hunt, a clergyman, and Capt. John Smith. With the assistance of Messrs. Popham and Georges, the group succeeded in 1606 in obtaining from their king a charter of the establishment of a colony in Virginia. This company was called the London Company and was composed of noblemen, gentlemen, and merchants, most of whom lived in London. About the same time, another company was formed: " The Plymouth Company," by a grQup of knights, gentlemen, and merchants, from the west of England. This company also obtained a charter from James .
The King's ~rant divided the area lying between the 34th and 45th parallel of latitude, (from Cape Cod on the coast of Carolina to Halifax. Nova Scotia) into two parts - North Virginia lying between parallels of latitude 45 and 41, and South Virginia lying between parallels of latitude 34 and 38. North Virginia was granted to the Plymouth Compan~, and South Viriginia to the London Company. Neither compariy was permitted to extend settlement
- 1 - within 100 miles of the other, but the strip lying between the 38th and 41st degree of latitude was declared open for both companies.
In 1606 the Plymouth Company tried unsuccessfully to establish a colony in their territory.
On Dec, 19, 1606, the London Company despatched three ships from England's shores to South Virginia. The c;ompany' s object was to establish a colony on the site of Sir Walter Raleigh's old Virginian Colony. On their arrival in the vicinity of the western coast of America.a storm drove the ships into Chesapeake Bay where the colonists landed and founded the settlement of Jamestown.
Before these pioneers set sail from England, King James had appointed a council for their government, the personnel of which was not to be disclosed before the landing. The names of the council were shown on a document which was sealed in a box. During the voyage no little controversy took place on the question of who should act on this council. When the box was opened on their arrival on April 27, 1607, much to the disgust of several of the ship's company who considered that they should be the favored ones, it was found that Wingfield, Newport, Gosnold, and Capt. Smith had been chosen by the king, Smith was by far the most able man among this group, Several of the others jealously accused him of trying to set himself up as ruler, and they might possibly have succeeded in upsetting the king's plans had it not been for the clergyman, Rev. Robert Hunt, who insisted that Capt. Smith be given a fair trial by jury. The result of the trial was Capt. Smith's acquittal. This emigrant member of the Hunt family was apparently the son of Robert Hunt, M.A., vicar of Reculver, Kent. He was educated at Trinity Hall, Cambridge, proceeded to L, L, B. in 1606 and in the same year was chosen by Richard Hakluyt with the approval of Archbishop Bancroft to ac company the Virginian colonists. It was Robert Hunt who had the honor on June 21, 1607 of conducting the first communion service for Englishmen in America. it was due to his efforts that a frame church structure was erected. This church was later replaced by a brick structure the ruins of which are still to be seen.
In 1614, Capt. Smith, together with four London merchants, entered into a private venture to visit the northern coasts of the Virginian Patents with two ships. The chronicles of Charleston, Mass. state that "after he had made certain discoveries in America he lighted upon the opening between Cape Cod and Cape Ann, situated in 71: 00' Longitude, and 42: 20' North Latitude, where by soundings and making up, he fell in amongst the islands, and advanced to Massachusetts Bay until he came upon the River Mishowam, afterwards called Charleston, and Shawmut, and subsequently Boston". After he had examined this part of the country and made observation of the manners and dispositions of the natives, he returned to England, presenting the King with a map of the territory explored. He named the country New England, which name was confirmed by the King.
When Smith sailed for home he left his second ship in charge of one Thomas Hunt with instructions to complete its loading and to follow him to England. Hunt, under the pretense of trading, decoyed twenty-four Indians aboard, and carried them to Malaga, then sold the largest portion of them as slaves. He no doubt would have sold them all, had the friars of these parts, on learning where the Indians came from, not taken them away to nurture them in the Christian religion. Hunt's action so incensed the natives that for some time it was unsafe for an Englishman to land on their shores (in northern New England). Nevertheless good came from this action, as one of the captives, Squanto, escaping from bondage at Malaga, fled to England where he learned to speak English. After five years' absence Squanto was taken back to his own people, where he became very useful to the colonists as an interpreter. Thus we see that the Hunts played a part in the early history of the New England States.
In 1631, a William Hunt, born in England in 1605, came to Massachusetts. Many of his descendants are now living in the New England States.
Many English Hunts came to America between 1606 and 1705. Their descendants are now scattered over the United States. Three Hunt brothers came out from the north of England in the early part of the 17th century. One of them settled in the vicinity of Rochester, New York. The other went to North Carolina. Their descendants are now located in Alabama,
- 2 - Kentucky. Tennessee and Massachusetts. The descendants are nearly all Baptists by faith.
One of the earliest American immigrants wa~ William Hunt, of Concord. born in England in 1605. His children were born in Concord: Nehemieh. born 1631; Samuel, born 1633; Elizabeth, born 1665. and married John Baron; and Isaac, born in 1647.
J. Montgomery Seaver, who has made a study of the Hunt family. estimates that in the United States of America there are now over 1:0, 000 people who bear the name Hunt. He estimates that there are an equal number in the British Empire. We may therefore conclude that the family name is not likely to become extinct in the near future.
Chapter II IRISH HUNTS
For the past 30 years an unsuccessful effort has been made to establish by documen - tary evidence a connection between that section of the Hunt clan which according to the 1821 census of Ireland numbered eight families in the i::ownlands of Currawn. County Leitrim, Parish of Mohill, and the Hunts of Limerick County. However. tradition, similarity of family names, religion, and facial features of the descendants of these families indicate that they are both descendants of Captain John Hunt, one of the 49 officer~ of the army of Charles I granted lands in Ireland in 1667 as part satisfaction of services rendered.
The parish records at Mohill, show no Hunt entries prior to 1796, excepting one dated 25th January 1784 registering the marriage of Robert Hunt and Margery Culm. Earlier church records are said to have been destroyed during the rebellion of 1797.
Mrs. F.J. Gillan, of Pakenham Ontario, a lady blessed with a marvellous memory, states that John Hunt, born 1778, William Hunt. born 1 761 and Robert Hunt, born 1786. were sons of William Hunt and Mary Waters, both born in 1748. According to a Currawn resident now living, Mr. Arthur Percival, whose mother was. a Hunt, William had four sons, namely Robert, John, Thomas and William. Thomas was the oli;lest, William the next. He states that Wiliiam Sr. came to Currawn from some other part of Ireland. A James Hunt of Aughafad, Fintona, County Tyrone. states he was born in the Parish of Mohill, and that his people always said the Hunts came to Curr awn ( which is. a townland in Mobil! Parish),from County Limerick. Church records at Mohill which registered the burial of Wm. Hunt on 19 March, 1821, aged 7'1. and the burial of Mary Hunt at Mohill in 1823, aged 75 bear out Mrs. F. J. Gillan's statement.
Captain John Hunt of the army of Charles I , mentioned above, was granted lands in Tulloghfargus and Russeltown, in the Barony of Talbotstown. County Wicklow. These lands were sold by John Hunt's son Vere who purchased other interests in County Limerick. It is thought that some of the younger sons of the Limerick Family, moved northward into County Leitrim, between 1 750 and 1784 where they acquired land by long term lease - "as long a, grass grows, and water flows."
The earliest entry regarding the Hunt family in the Parish records of Mohill, has been described above. The second entry is the registration of the baptism of James MarshalL the 5011 of Saunders Marshall and Ann Hunt, 9 October, 1796. The third entry is that of the baptism of a William Hunt. son of William Hunt and Elizabeth Shaw on 11 June. 1797.
As the first entry in the parish records which mentions John Hunt, and his wife Latetia Gillan is the baptism of their oldest son Robert, on May 12th, 1805, and as no record of Hunt wills or deeds can be found, it is quite possible that this family was not living there prior to 1760.
THE GILLANS
That there was an affinity between the Hunts_ and the Gillans is evidenced by the fact that John Hunt married Latetia Gillan, Robert Hunt married Mary Gillan, and later William Hunt
- 3 - married a Sally Gillan. All three Gillan girls are said to have been sisters.
The Gillan Family is an old Irish one. Many entries relating to it are found in church and census records. Records indicate that Gillans were numerous in Cloontumper, Rusky, Conboy, Milreagh, Town of Mohill and in Sandy Hill.
The Gillans claim connections with the ancient Irish kings which fact is borne out by the following extract from Surnames and their Origin.
"Gillen (variations, Geelan, Golab, Gillon, Gillion, Glennon, Gliffiman), is of origin Irish. Source, a given name. The names of this group are often found with the prefix Mac, which is the Irish and Scottish equivalent of the English termination "son", the German "sohn", the Norman-French prefix "Fritz", and the Russian and Polish termination "witz", ''ski't. ''ska'', etc.''
The old Gaelic form of the name is" Macgioqa Finnen, or MacGiolla-Finnien", the pronunciation of which was much more simple than would seem. MacGillianan comes pretty close to the way it would come off a Gaelic speaking tongue. The clan name comes from the given name of Giellafinnean (meaning followers of the shield).
The clan was founded by a chieftain of this name, as nearly as can be estimated, a few decades before the close of the tenth century. This Chief was the last Prince of Tirconnel to come from the O'Mulroy line, and was a direct descendant of one Anmire, the 138th High King of all Ireland, who reigned, according to history, in the year 563 A. D., about the time the Anglo Saxons were consolidating the fruits of their victories, after the invasion of England.
MOHILL
Mohill lies in that part of the Diocese of Ardagh which was at one time the territory of Muntir Eloais, that is to say MacRanannal ( 0' Renolds) clan, in the southern part of the County of Leitrim.
The inhabitants of Connaught were called Conmaichne, or descendants of Conmac, son of Furgus MacRoy, the dethroned King of Ulster. He was dethroned by Queen Meave, or Maud of Connaught.
The Diocese of Ardagh, in 1475, contained the Castles of Rinn, Lough Scur, Leitrim, and Monastries of Fenagh, Mohill, and Cloon. The Lough Rinn Castle is still in use.
The date of the appearance of the first members of the Hunt family in Mohill will probably never be definitely known. Church records have, according to Rev. Geo. Ingram, Parish Rector in 1922 in Mohill, been destroyed in practically every parish excepting those con - raining entries subsequent to 1 798.
The following letter written by Mr. Phillip Crossle, Dublin Record Agent in 1921, indicates the difficulties experienced in trying to locate records in Northern Ireland.
105 Grove Park, Rathmines, Dublin, Ireland, 23, Nov. 1921.
W. H. Hunt, Esq., 162 Clandeboye Avenue, Selkirk, Manitoba.
Dear Sir:
I have just received your letter of the 6th instant. Regarding to giving you an estimate for obtaining information in connection with the
- 4 - ancestors of John Hunt of Mohill, County Leitrim, born circ. 1778 and immigrated to Canada 1832, it is not possible to name a figure. Sometimes a pedigree is very easily found, at other times it may be very difficult. But my terms for searching and abstracting are 3/ per hour, which is 11ot so formidable as it looks, because, after having consulted all ready refere11ces which I will be able to place before you, you will then be able to judge how far you wish to prosecute the search.
The Town of Mohill is in a parish of that 11ame, and in the Diocese of Ardagh. Now in the Diocese of Ardagh, there are no wills to Hunts, but in the neighboring Diocese of Kil more, there is only one will, namely Joseph Hunt 1762.
In the Perogative Collection there are no early wills of Hunt in County Leitrim, so it seems to me that was not their original home, and it will be a question to find where they did come from.
In order to get you some memoranda. I searched the census of 1821 for the Parish of Mohill and find the family were living in a Townland now named Currawn; I enclose the result of the search which occupied me two hours at 3/ (i.e. 6/). The Parish is a very large one and there are many residents.
I think, before starting a search with me, it would be as well to write to Rev. Thomas Johnson Bayley, M.A., Rector of Mohill County Leitrim, and ask him to search his registers for Hunt. The registers commence in 1 785, and they ought to show if Hunt was in the Parish at that date.
If you wish to save time you could get Mr. Bayley to send whatever references he finds to me, having instructed me in the meantime if you wish to follow up what he may find and I can post it on to you. Whatever may be found in Mohill registers may be a valuable indication for me to search in the records.
Yours v,ery truly,
PHILLIP CROSSLL

There are no returns for 1861. I have the letter you enclosed from Mr. Geo. Hamilton, and as I have already written to the incumbent of the parish, it is little use tackling Rev. T. Bailey. All the same there must be far more entries, in the books than the three he sends. I will when I hear from you next . see what Parochial returns we have for the Parish of Mohill in the Record Office. These are - supposed - to be annual returns of the Parish Register, but often times most un - satisfactory and incomplete - all depends on _the kind of Clergyman in charge of the Parish. I recommend first, a search for any likely wills in neighboring Counties, and try to arrive at the origin of the family and also a search in the Registry of Deeds, to try to find if there are any leases registered for Currawn.

Rector and Surrogate of the Parish of Mohill is to be thanked for providing photographs of Lough Rhin Castle, and several scenes in and around Mohill, also for a photo of the Hunt Memorial Hall in Mohill, erected in memory of the Venerable Fitzmaurice Hunt, Archdeacon of Ardagh, and Vicar General of Elphin, and for 21 years rector of MohilL The Venerable Fitzmaurice Hunt who died at Mohill on 21 April 1891 was a sixth generation descendant of Captain John Hunt of the Army of Charles I. Following is a story current about Mohill. told by Rev. Ingham which illustrates the mentality of the Irish folks in those parts about 1820. William Hunt a member of the Mohill Hunt Clan disappeared from his home and no trace of him could be found. After a considerable time had passed, a vision appeared to a member of the Hunt family in which a statement was made that the whereabouts of William Hunt would be revealed if a number of mounted men. sitting with faces towards horses tails encircled, twelve times, Cornea Fort on a certain night then called on Dunbenagh King of the Fairies, threatening to level the Fairy Citadel unless the person William Hunt was produced. Johnny McCreight, a well-known resident of Mohill headed a procession, which on a dark winter riight duly arrived at the fort. After going through with great trepidation the prescribed ceremony, the party was about to summon Dunbenagh when a mounted figure carrying a lantern dashed into the little band, and with loud hullaballoo and flourishing a massive black thorn, scattered the horsemen in all directions. For a considerable period all kinds of rumors were current in the locality. Many marvellous descriptions of the midnight visitor were told. Years afterward. it was claimed that the visiror was none other than the Rev. Arthur Hyde, rector of the parish (ci.rc. 1818) who set out on purpose to banish such ideas. Efforts to locate wills, relating to known connections of John Hunt and Letetia Gillan, have to date been unsuccessful, but the following information gathered by Miss B. Thrift - 11 - in 1930 may be of value, assistance, and interest to any one wishing to pursue the subject further. EXTRACT FROM INDICES OF IRISH WILLS BY L.R.L.

HUNT, ESQ, OF CALGARY ALBERTA 349 - 15th Ave. West, Calgary, Alberta, 15th Nov., 1922. W. H. Hunt, Esq,, Selkirk, Man. My dear cousin, As I suppose fshould address you, for I think I rerrember you quite well, having taken special notice of you the day I dined at your home, and I remember well all the trouble your father took to locate me, and to get me there, I am sorry that I am not in a position to enlighten you regarding the residence of our ancestors, or their sojourn in England. My father never did tell me that they ever lived in England, and he was thorough Irish; so much so, that if we wanted to see him a little riled, all we had to do was to start running down the Irish. I think grandfather must have lived, and possibly been born in Ireland, for the lease on his property was for "while grass grows and water flows," and he sold out for a very large sum of money, at that time. as father said. some of the old sovereigns he brought with him from Ireland were still left when he died. He was a verv clever horseman and would have nothing but thoroughbred stock, and J can remember him when over eighty years of age. coming to our place which was four miles. on a blood mare, and taking right across country, jumping fences and ditches. just as he use.d to do when hunting in Ireland. I never saw any of the old papers, John L Hunt speaks of. as I was only on a short visit at any time, and I said before we were four miles from all the rest of them and Uncle Charles and Uncle James were only thirty rods apart, and it would be easy for J. L. to see the old papers. Father gave me all the particulars re our re.latioP~ that were in Canada, as I seem to have the best memory for remembering them, and they, my own folks and cousins, always came to me when they wanted to know anything about our -friends. and this was I think what caused J. L. to say what he did. I know that the Bodys were an important branch of the family, as father told me of his Uncle Thomas Body, who was murdered by the Roman Catholics, on his own doorstep for being an Orangeman, and great loyalist, and possibly these orphan boys were his children. The Gillans were very highly respected in Ireland and were related to Earls and Dukes, according to the story of grand-uncle Francis Gillan who would have nothing to do with the English Church after Rev. Morris married his son Charles to a Wilson girl who was related to tinkers and riled him completely. There is one thing absolutely certain that we came of a very fine stock and were highly respected and speaking to a distant relative in Smiths Falls one day, one of the family that had settled there said to me ·you will not get mad if I tell you what we think of the Fitz roy Hunts" and I said "certainly not, .vhat do you think'>· and he answered ·•we have always thought that .they were very proud.·' ··wen·, I said ·· my friend. I do not think so, but if anv people had a right to that distinction we all have, for l have vet to hear of any crime commit ted to cause them to hang their heads in shame, which cannot be said of many people who were as numerous as we were." I expect your mother is still alive and quite smart. if so please give her my very kindest regards. Sorry· I could not give you the demed information but I expect the Rebellion in Ireland knocked that out in any case, so that it will be impossible to get it now" Sincerely yours, H. J Hunr, - 13 - LETTER OF JAMES HUNT OF AUGHAFAD, FINTONA, CO. TYRONE Aughafad, Fintona, Co. Tyrone 15/12/1924 W. H. Hunt, Esq., Selkirk, Manitoba. Dear Sir; In reply to yours of Sept. 18th, I now take the pleasure of giving y.ou all the news I can about the Hunts of Co. Limerick. As my father was born there in Currawn or "Cumalath" as he used to call it at least that was as it sounded to me. Well now as I told you before my father's name was Michael and my grandfather's name was Terrance or Terry, and my great' s name was John Hunt. My father had no brothers at all. My grandfather left Mohill about the year 1850 or 1854 and went to live in Dublin.so he must have been there in 1821, yet my father's name might not be there as he might not have been born at that time. So if you have got the census of 1821 you can easy find out if my grandfather and G. mother are in it that would be Terrance and Bridget as Bridget was my G. mother's name. Or you could see if my great grandfather's name was there as I have said that would be John, I don't know what my great grandmother's name was as I am just giving you what I know to be right and I think this is about all that.. would interest you about my family for the present . As I have no family record nor there is none to my knowledge to be had. But as far as I know from what my fatht:r used to say that the Hunts came from Co. Limerick I don't know what time. I also heard him say that he was told that he had friends in the United States or Canada, but that he had lost all account of them. My father could not write nor I don't know if my grandfather could, as it was in these times so then it could be easy to get out of touch with friends once they crossed the sea. Now I will conclude for this time. I feel sorry that I can't give you all the news you want but I will be glad to be at your service any time you like to call on me. As I would be delighted to locate all my friends and I feel sure that your family and mine are nearly one as they are from the one parish and also that they followed the one trade as my old folks were weavers or makers of linen in those times. So I will ring off, hoping to hear from you soon again .. Sincerely yours, James Hunt.

CHAPTER XI OTHER HUNT FAMILIES Although there is no documentary evidence to show that the families, listed below are related to the descendants of William Hunt1, it is quite reasonable to assume that they are. - 57 - Information for those born and brought up in Ireland has been gathered from Mohill Parish and 1821 Census of Ireland Records. The Lake Dore Hunts, and the Huntsville Hunts, both had their origin in County Leitrim, and probably sprang from some of the Irish Hunt men, of whose families there is no record. In the early 1800' s many Irishmen went to Canada and ro A ustrialia. The asiatic cholera which raged from time to time no doubt left many orphans on this side of the water who really never knew very much about their families, because they were so young when their parents died.

Among the American and Canadian friends who contributed most unselfishly, may be mentioned: - 0 Miss Ma ry Talbot M.A., of Winnipeg, Man. Mrs" Alice V. Baker of Cowansville. Que. Susan A. Scott Randall, Boston, Mass. Agnes Robinson, Sweetsburg, Que. A. L. Scott Esq. , Bolton Center, Que. Mrs. Delucia··Baker, Cowansville, Que. Harry B. Shufelt Esq., Montreal, Que. Miss M. Moffatt, Boston Genealogical Record Office. Francis Audette Esq., Public Archives, Ottawa, Canada. Dr. W. F. Scott, Los Angeles, Cal. James E. Scott Esq., Calistoga, Cal, A great amount of the early Scott family history has been recently confirmed, by reference to Orin P, Allen's book, "The Scott Genealogy,·• families of William and John ScotL Published at Palmer, Mass., by C. B. Fisk. in 1906. It may be of interest to note here. that Daniel Scott, the United Empire Loyalist, who married Lois Herd was the great grandson of William Scott and his wife Hannah Allis. CHAPTER I THE SURNAME OF SCOTT The family name of Scott is said to have originated from the ancient Ossian word "Scuta", meaning a restless wanderer. It is a name of great antiquity. Buchanan's History of Scotland states that Charles the Great of France, brought Greek and Latin Scholars, to Paris, from many parts, among them Johannes Scotus, later Preceptor of Charlemange. Johannes Scotus name is noted as that of one who left for the benefit of others, many monuments of learning. Noted Historians, including Vermundus, Scholeger, and Boethius, claim still greater antiquity for the origin of the name of Scott, in as much as that it originated from Scota the daughter of Pharoah, in the time of Moses, and in the manner as set forth below. Gathelus, son of Cocrops, first king of Athens, was for insolence and other mis demeanors, banished from his father's Kingdom. He with a band of fugitives, left Greece for Egypt, where they joined Pharoah's army, and so distinguished themselves, that GatMh.ifwas made a general, and was given Pharoah's daughter "Scota", in marriage. Later in order to escape the plagues, from which Egypt then suffered, Gathelius with his wife, and Greek and Egyptian followers left Egypt by ship, and landed in Spain. He called the country in which he landed Port Gathale, which name is the derivative of Portugal. He named his followers, "Scottis" after his wife. After fighting with Spaniards for many years, he and his followers left Portugal for Ireland, and subsequently, these people settled in the north of Britain called Scotland. As time went on, according to Professor Innes of Edinborough University, the people of Scotland who wandered into England, were there called Scotus, in addition to their own surname, and on their return to Scotland, retained the suffix Scot to their own name. The Bishop of Aberdeen, who made a very exhaustive study of old Scottish records, states all concurr that the name of Scott is derived from Scota, and that many of the des cendants of Scota, assumed the name of Scott, usually spelling it with one "t", down to the beginning of the 17th century, THE SCOTTS OF SCOTT'S HALL, ENGLAND The Scotts of Scott's Hall, Kent, England, trace their ancestry, through Dorvogille, a daughter of one of the heirs of Alan, Lord of Galloway, Constable of Scotland, who was the mother of William Baliol Scot, to Fergus King of Scotland, in the time of Alexander The Great, to Rollo first king of Normandy, Alfred The Great, and William The Conqueror, mainly through the female lines. In the old Norman church at Bradbourne, Kent, are found many records pertaining to the Scotts of ScottS Hall, dating back to the thirteenth century. It is said that in Kent, Staffordshire, and at the Scottish border the family of Scott has been one of great wealth and influence, and that the Scotts of Scott's Hall, could at one time travel the distance of sixty miles between Bradboume and London without leaving estates belonging to family connections. Following are the names of so'me of the members of this family, found in old country records: - Richard Scott of Scott's Hall, Co. Kent. The first family to settle in Sallop. Born 1544, and died at Shrewsbury, 1682. Isaac Scott, born 1584, had sons, one of whom was Richard an active partisan of - 1 - King Charles I. John Scott, grandson of Richard, who had three sons. (1) John who assumed the name and arms of Warring, upon inheriting the estate of his relative Richard Hill Warring. (2) Richard Scott H. E. I, C. S. distinguished in the Carnatic war. (3) Johnathan born 1 753, Captain H.E.I.C.S. died 1829. Those Scotts, descendants of Sir Reginald Scott of Scott's Hall, c;illeged to be of this line, who ca me to New England are: - (a) Richard Scott of Providence, son of l (b~ John Scott, sent to New England by the Cromwellians , in 1642 and, who afterwards owned one third of Long Island. (c, Judge Edward Scott of Newport Rhode Island, who with his cousin James, came to :'--iew England about 1710, (d::, William Scott our ancestor, whose name first appears in New England records, at Hatfield, Mass< in 1668. An American emmigrant named Scott, a follower of The Young Pretender, after the the battle of Culloden in which his brother was killed, was forced to leave his native land. He seuled in New England. and was the grandsire of Gen, Winnifred Scott of Virginia. He is said to have proclaimed law in Virginia. CHAPTER II \Villiam Scott. the great grandfather of Daniel Scott, the United Empire Loyalist, first appears in \:ew England records in 1668 •. , .About this time. the names of two other Scott men are recorded, From the similarity of their families' christian names, it would appear that William Scott of Hatfield. Benjamin Scott of Breintree and John Scott of Springfield, were closely related. and that they were all descendants of the Scotts of Scott's Hall, in Kent County England" After coming to that part of Hadley Mass", now called Hatfield. our ancestor William Scott married on the 28th January 1670, Hannah. the daughter of LieuL William Allis William Allis was an emmigrant, who came first to Watertown. Mass., moved to Breintree in 1656. two years later to Hartford, and finally in 1661, he appears as one of the original settlers of Hadley, Mass. Lieut, Allis was apparently a very active citi.zen, as at his death . on 6 Sept, 1676. he had served as a Selectman, Church Deacon. Justice of Peace, and Lieut. of Cavalry. His estate was valued at 496 pounds sterling. In 1665, a saw mill was built at Hatfield. so that it is not unlikely that houses built after thatfincluding William Scotts, were frame structures" At this time there were about thirteen families in Hatfie}d" Practically all lands occupied in the area were purchased from the Indian Chiefs llmponchella and Quanquant of the Norwottuck tribe< Most of this meadow land had been cleared by the natives. and had been producing corn for them, for many generations, but the bush land on the adjoining hills had to be cleared and grubbed before the English settlers could use it, On 8th August 1670, William Scott, was assigned a home lot, twenty rods wide on the east si.de of the main street. close to the road leading to the ferry. and at the north end of the settlement< On 16 January, 16 71, he obtained another grant, and later a di vision of the Commons, As the Indians were fairly dealt with, the settlers lived in peace with them for a while. bur during the King Phillips war, the French incited the natives to make raids on the new settlers, The settlements of Hatfield, Turners Falls, Deerfield and Sunderland were - 2 - '2~.. ..•. ~ . .,J;.. -· - ---- ,Al.. ~- attacked and looted. In 1676, William Scott took part in an expedition against Turners Falls. In this attack, on the 19th of May, the enemy was defeated, but the New Englanders lost many men, among whom was William Allis Junior, William Scott's brother-in-law. In 1677, during an attack, made by Indians, on 19th September, on Hatfield, twelve persons were killed, and seventeen taken prisoners. Half of Hatfields dwellings were destroyed. The prisoners were afterwards redeemed, excepting, three whom the Indians had afterwards killed. Part of the village of Hatfield was protected by a stockade, and although at this time it was hazardous for one to venture out of sight of ones chimney smoke, William Scott's home was outside the stockade. In 1677, on cessation of hostilities, William Scott received from the General Court at Boston, the sum of two pounds sixteen shillings for services rendered, (named military expenses). After the war, the settlers were again able to increase their holdings. Their homes were improved and their families increased in size and numbers. That the settlers lived under strict Puritanical rule, is evidenced by the fact that Mrs. William Scott and five other Hatfield women, were tried, and found guilty of wearing silk dresses which was unlawful. They were all fittingly fined. William Scott was apparently thrifty, for, when he died in 1718, aged eighty-three. he owned a lot in each of the North and South Meadows, in addition to his home and property on Main street, and four other parcels. In Commons Division, 1 Lot 65 - - - 14 Rods x 3 miles. 3 Lot 6 - - - 13 " x 3 miles. 2 Lot 40 - - - 12 " x 2 miles. 4 Lot 69 - - - 13 " x 4 miles. His will, now on file of the Archives of Memorial Hall at Deerfield, Mass., and dated 16th of February 1716, was apparently never probated. As no tomb stone marks his grave, the exact date of his birth is not known but best available information indicates that he died in 1718, aged eighty-three. WILL OF WILLIAM SCOTT "In the name of God, Amen. The 15th day of February, in the third year of his majesties reign, A.D. 1716-17, I William Scott of Hatfield, in the county of Hampshire, in His Majesties Province of Massachusetts of perfect mind and memory, thanks be given to God therefor, calling to mind the mortality of my body, and knowing that it appointed to all men to die, do make and ordain this my last will and testament, that is to say principally, and first of all, give and recommend my soul into the hands of God, who gave it, and my body, I recommend to earth, to be buried in a decent christian burial, at the discression of my executor, herein named, nothing doubting, but that the general Resurrection, I shall receive the same again, by the mighty power of God. And as touching such worldly estates it has pleased God to Bless me, in this life, far beyond my deserts I give, devise. and dispose of the same in the following manner and form. Imprimus: - I give and bequeath to Hannah, my dearly beloved wife, after my decease, (she outliving me;, the use and improvement of my whole estate both real and personal for her support, during the term of her natural life.•· To my eldest son Josiah: - Three acres of land in Denison' s Farm, in addition to that which was given him in 1 707. To my daughter Hannah Broughton, forty shillings. To my son Richard, forty shillings. To my son William, forty shillings. To m1 daughter Abigail Bingham, tony shillings. To my son Joseph, the remainder of my estate. Witnesses; Thomas Haskings, '.'lathaniel Dickenson, ye third, Joseph Waite. - 3 - lt is current tradition that none of the Scott families were ever molested by Indians, during any of the several raids. in the settlement afrer the close of King Phillip's war. and after the breaking up of the Indian Ca mp at Hopewell. near Hatfield. It is said that. one reason for the Indians consideration for the Scott families. was brought about by an act of kindness, performed by Josiah Scott, William's oldest son. Influenced by very vivid dreams of starving people in an Indian encampment on Hopewell Hill. which dreams occurred on three successive nights, Josiah set out on snow shoes. armed with his musket. to visit the camp. At the foot of Hopewell Hill, he shot a bear. and carried some of the meat with him. On his arrival at the camp. he found conditions to be just as his dream had pictured them. The remainder of the bear meat was obtained. and served to save the Indians from their predicament. This act was never forgotten.

Mass .. 3 February 1713, the third son of Josiah Scott and Sarah Barrett, was one of the pioneers of Falltown, Mass. On 24 August 1742, he married Miriam, the daughter of Ebeneazer \:ash, of Hadley, Mass. She was born at Hadley, on 2 January 1710. lier grandfather Timothy ;';ash. married Rebecca, daughter of Rev. Samuel Stone, of Hartford. Conn. in 1657. Her great granfather. Thomas Nash, who married Margary, - j - daughter of Nicholas Baker, of England, emigrated to '.\ew England. Captain Mose~ was a man of very powerful ph s1que being over six feet tall, He was credited with the strength of four ordinary men, He was a farmer. carpenter and soldier, and excelled in all of his vocations. His lands, which he inherited from his father, who had received them for military services, embraced all of the meadow north of the v;llage of Fall town, as far as the cemetery, also the upland. later called Warner Place, He built, owned and operated a saw mill which for many years stood close to the iron bridge over Fall River, which bridge was still standing in 1910. He had charge of the building of the first fons built at falltown, and later was one of their able defenders, During the war of the Austrian succession, the French in Canada, under the leader ship of M. Rigaud de Vaudreuil. encouraged the Indians of New England and of Canada to harass the >lew England settlements, In 1755, several houses were stockaded. and forts were built at Colrain and at Falltown. but when in August of 1746 De Vaudreuil with eight hundred French and Jndians marched across country from Crown Point. on Lake Champlain. the settlers including Capt, Mose,:. gathered at Fort Ma5sachussets, On the twentieth of August. the French arrived and demanded surrender. The defenders. who totaled twenty-two effective men under the leader~hip of Sergeant Hawkes, later Lt, Cot Hawkes. ignoring the French demand, were able to keep the raiders at a respectful distance by means of their ver1 accurate small arms fire. which was effective at over three hundred yards, · Whenever an enemy exposed himself within thi, effective range the sharpshooting of the defender5 brought him down. For twenty-eight hours rhe defence wa~ maintained, until the ammunirinn supply ran out, The garrison s,mende1ed after ha vmg killed or badly wounded forty-seven of the enemy. with a los~ of only one defendec Setgeant Ha½'kr~ agreed to capitulate with the understanding that the garrison, men ,,omen and rhildrr.n were to remain pn"'lD'c'.r< 0f war until exchanged or redeemed, and i:.hat all wet<" TP b,o. human,:Jy treated, and thar no 0ne would be rurned over to the Indians. However the French on the following day turned half of the prisoners over to the Indians. who prompth killed one sic!< man, The other< were taken back to Canada by way of Crown Point and Lake Champlain, Among the pri,oners was Captain Mo·,es hi, wifr Miriam and their two sons. Moses Junior and fbene.aze1. Stephen and Joseph Scott, cousrns of l\1oses Sr, vvere also taken to Quebec. From the hardships of the journey, l\Jmam Scott suffered severely, and as a result of the experience died short!~ after reaching Quebec, Her death was followed two months later by that of her baby, Notes taken from the diary of Revo John ~orton and published in Perry's book "Williamstown,"read as follows: - "Friday. August 2nd (1746), They also (the French\ carried off Moses Scott's wife and two children and another of Smead' s childreno ·• "Monday 15th September (1746).

On 26th August 174 7. after fifty-three weeks of captivity, Moses Sro was released, but unfortunately was unable to locate his oldest son who had been sold to Indians, Three ::, ears later. Captain Moses Scott. and Lt. Col, Hawkes went to Canada searching for the bov Ebeneazer, He was found in an Indian encampment. but ran away from his father, A ver, nimble Indian runner was required to catch him, and for many months after he came home he preferred sleeping in a blanket, on the floor. to sleeping in a bed, - 6 - Following is the story of his estrangement. as told in Tumbull's Indian Wars, published in Boston, Mass,. in 1836, and retold in "\;ew England and New France" by James Douglas. which book was to be found on the shelves of the Winnipeg Carnegie Library, on William Street Winnipeg, Manitoba.in 1925, "One of the boys captured at Fort Massachusets, refused to willingly leave his Canadian protectors, with a Col. Hawkes. who redeemed him, After he had been a captive for a year and nine months, when brought into the presence of Col. Hawkes, he was unwilling to know him, although he was his uncle, and had always been acquainted with him at Deerfield, Mass. '."-/either would he speak to him in the English tongue: not that he had forgG>tten it, but to express his unwillingness to return, He made use of various arts. that he might not be exchanged, and was finally brought off by force, The youth had lost affection for his country and friends, This seemed all the more surprising. when it is considered that he had fared extremely hard, and was reduced almost to a skeleton," In spite of his experience with the Canadian Indians. the boy Ebeneazer afterwards married, raised a large family and took a ver~ active part in the American Revolution, After his release from captivity. Moses Sr, re.turned to Falltown and married a second time, His second wife is said to have been a Miss Henry, In 1760, he and Samuel Connable were granted£27 sterling, with which to build a bridge across the Fall River, near his saw milL Moses also later took part in several expeditions against the French in Canada, by way of Lake George. He was a Captain in Israel William's Company in Colrain, from 19th Ocrober 1756 to 23 January 1757. His name appears on the enlistment roll of John Burk's Unit on 3rd November 1758. In 1 i"26 when Falltown was made a Township. Captain Moses was one of its first selectmen, This office. and many others which he held in the community, identify him as a highly re<;pected c1ttzen, He died at Bernardston. where his grave stone still stands in the old cemeter, north of the village, bearing the following inscription: - To the mernor} of Mo,e.s Scott. who died 23 Ju 1v 1799. age 86, Some weeprng friend may drop a tear On these dry bones and say The) were once were strong as mine appear.

As a result of two petitions, Daniel Scott was granted. on 14th June 1784, Lot number three on the west side of Lord Dorchester's Bounty, It's area was 60 acres. In December 1 794, Daniel Scott, was granted for himself and his thriteen year old son Lemuel, 2 Lots, each of 200 acres, namely Lots 205 and 206 in Hemmingford, providing that their share of the cost of the survey - 24 - be born by Daniel Scott, and that they hac.l not alreac.ly been given a grant. In July 1 795 Daniel Scott and his friend Reuben Hawley, asked that their quota of land, to which they as discharged soldiers, were entitled, be granted in the Township of Clapham. Their request was refused. on the grounds that no more vacant lands existed in the Township. It is very doubtful if Daniel ever did accept a land grant, A bout this time there was considerable dissatisfaction among disbanded soldiers, with regard to the granting of lands. One group of Loyalists, with whom Daniel Scott, and after wards his son, Lemuel served. included Capt. Myers, Ensign Sherwood, Capt. Henry Ruyter, Ensign Conrad Best. having found the territory in the vicinity of Caldwell's Manor, which was situated on the French Seigneuries of Sieur Foucalt, Noy on, and La vasseur, and also land in the vicinity of Lakes Champlain, and Memphermagog, to their liking, wanted to remain in that area, rather than to move down the Richelieu River to Sorel. and thence by boat to Bay of ·Quinte, with otherswho were arriving in boats, from New York, by way of the St, Lawrence River. A copy of their petition addressed to Lieut. Govenor of Quebec, is set forth on page 51. In any case Daniel spent the winter of 1783-4 at Sorel. Later he went to Caldwell's Manor, where he lived until 1800. when he acquired land, and settled at Sweetsburg, on a .lot which in 1866 was occupied by his grandson R. M. Scott. Daniel's name, as will be noted appears with others mustered at Sorel, on 12 September 1784. About 1780. Daniel4, married Li~ Hurd, who would appear from all available 1 evidence, to have been the widow of Sergea8't ~ '1urd, of the Royal Regiment of New York. ~t Hurd was on account of his loyalty to the crown prosecuted by the Rebels, and thrown into Oesopus jail, where he died. In 1803, his son Jehil, together with a Francis Scott, was serving as an Ensign in a Grenville Militia Unit, under Lieut. Col, Fraser. Col. Wm. Fraser, and Major Alex Campbell.

The difficulties encountered by the United Empire Loy a lists in getting their affairs settled. after coming to Canada, can be better appreciated if one reads the Appendix of this manuscript.

In the winter of 1783-84, his parents were at Sorel. Que, . from whence they moved. after his father was discharged from the army, to Caldwell's Manor. on Lake Champlain. In 1800 the Scott family moved to Sweetsburg, where Lemuel lived the rest of his life, on his father's homestead. In 1886, this property was pur chased from Lemuel's estate by Richard M. Scott, Lemuel's third son. Lemuel also owned a lot in Dunham which was later sold, to another son Jedediah, who in 1856 was living on it, At the time of the 1812 -15 war with the States, Lemuel was at the age of thirty-two, a private in Capt. Innis Pell's Company, of the 4th Battalion of the Eastern Township, which unit. temporarily under the command of Major Joseph Powell, was stationed at St, Armand, Que, On 12th October 1812, Americans under Cot Clarke raided Phillipsburg, captured eighty-six of the 4th Battalion boys, and marched them off to St. Albans. From St. Albans, the prisoners. were taken, first to Greenbush, and later to Burlington, Vt., where they were confined under very unsanitary conditions, and given very little to eat. Their fare consisted of bread and water. with a bit of maggoty meat thrown iri occasionally. The circumstances which led to their capture is set forth in the Appendix to this manuscript. During Lemuer s imprisonment, his wife Keziah, with Pitney, his youngest brother, rode on horseback to Burlington, Vt,, she carrying a baby daughter Roxanna, born 12 March 1813, in her arms. After the visit which was made in the summer of 1814, Keziah returned home, carded wool, spun yar. and wove enough cloth to make Lemuel a suit of clothes, and an overcoaL During the winter of 1814-15, Keziah, and Lemuels mother, (nee Lois Hurd), with a French boy to drive the horse and sled on which a box had been fastened, for a body, and with bed clothes for robes, again visited Lemuel at Burlington, bringing with them both clothes and food. Soon after the second visit prisoners were exchanged and Lemuel returned to his family. - 28 - GLAIM SETTLEMENT: Copied from phoiustatic print of original print of Claim Ledger, now on file in Public Records Office, London, England.

Ha - 35 - CHAPTER VIJJ APPENDIX The following memorandum, gathered from manv sources, may serve to refresh the reader's memory, as regards portions of Canadian and \iew fngland history, and also provide a setting. which may help him to better appreciate conditions under which our predecessors lived, W, IL II, UNITED EMPIRE LOYALISTS' NOTES (1) Extract from the History of Dundas County, by James Crail Owned by Dr. Merkley of Winnipeg, tells of the origin of the German people who lived in the Mowhawk Valley, before the Americans confiscated their lands and gave them away to Rebel sympathizers. In the Spring of 1708. fifty -two Palatines landed in England. Their Leader, a Lutheran Minister, Josiah Kockerthol, asked that the} be sent to America. The British Govern ment eventually se.ttled them on the Hudson River in ~ew York, where Newburg now stands. ln 1709, the British Ministry was beset by 15000 Germans who came to England. Queen Anne did not know what to do with them. but they were generally cared for in several different ways. 3800 of them formed prosperous settleme.nts in Munster Ireland. The Carolinas received 100 families. 1000 died at Blackheath, 800 returned home, and many enlisted in the army. Mow ha wk Chiefs then visited England, and granted them a parcel of land on the Schoharie River. In 1710, ten ships bearing 3200 Palatines set sail from England. Nine ships only reached New York, one ship lured by.a..,fu4.~·,Jight .. wa~•wreckt:d on Long Island with a loss of life of 470 souls. {See Whitier' 5 poem on the · Palatine Ship .. 1 The Dutch people living in the American colonies were not very loyal to Great Britain. these Germans were, The Hollanders were inclined to be rebels. Not one single name of Dutch origio appear, 0n the rolls of the King'< Ro} al Regiment of New York. In tt>.e Spring following their arrival the new settlers were put to work, manufacturing tar for the coloniE.s Some of them enlisted with Walker who was the Officer Commanding the unsucceViful expedition sem to take Quebec. The Germans were finally settled in the Mowhawk Valley , In ttie. \ ear 1757, French and Indianq swept the valley burning the crops and buildings. 1\fearly all the Palatines escaped by cros,ing the Mowhawk River, but 40 were killed and 100 were taken prisonen After the attack the new settlers were very discontented, and were very undecided as to what the\ should do. Sir John Johnson, however helped sooth their feelings and fears. and again they settled down to their former persuits. ln December 1775, Philip Schuyler with 4000 new England troops. was sent to disarm the loyalists in the Mowhawk Valley. Sir John Johnson agreed to capitulate. and hostages were given. The German's pigs and cattle were given to Schu-y ler. and in order to clear up the situation. Sir John Johnson with a party of 200 men. made a trip to Montreal to arrange for the removal of the lovalists. from New York State to Canada. After a difficult march they reachEd Montreal. As a result of the deliberations at \fontreal. scout, were ,em back, to let the folks in the Mowhawk Valley know that any who wished to <:<'me to Quebec could do so. and so it transpired that these loyal Germans who had lived in A merk a for sixtv -five years. had to br;gin life all over again in a new country. On Jul} 7. 177 5, Si.r John Johnson wa, granted the privilege of raising a unit from among his followers and from rhe lovalists aro•md J0hnstown in the Mowhawk Valley. This Battalion was called the · King·s Royal Rangers of New York". ''The Royal Yorkers" or the ··Royal Greens", The stre'1gth of this regiment was about 500 men and officers. In 1780 another Battalion. also about 500 strong, made up almost entirely of Palatines was formed. It was called the 2nd Battalion ThE. Royal Rangers of "Jew York. In 1777 another unit "Butlers Rangers·· was formed { also chiefh Palatines,. 600 of Butler's Rangers afterward settled in Dundas County, Ontario This Regiment was also called 'Butlers Irregulars or Royal Rangers. One group of this unit worked with Col. St. Leger via Oswego. the other with General Burgoyne via Lake Champlain :Rattle of Saratoga/, - 3, - In 1780, with his Royal Greens, Sir John Johnson, marched into the Mowhawk Valle\ and made things very unpleasant for the Yankee newcomers. In the fall of this year. he with 200 Butler· s Rangers, and some other irregulars, devastated the Schorarie Valley. The following report written by Sir John Johnson to the Govenor General describes his operations in 1780. (2) Extracts from "Lunenburg, or the Old Eastern District'', by Pringle, page 34 7. (Extracts from Canadian Archives - Haldimand papers. Series "B", Vol. 158, page 128) ST. JOHN'S, 3 JUl\E 1780. I have the honor to report to your Excellency, the arrival of the troops and Indians under my command. at this place, We arrived at the settlement within five miles of Johnson Hall on the 21st of last month; in the evening previous to which J made known to the Indians the pian which J wished to persue, and I thought that I had little reason to doubt their joining heartily into it. but ori assembling them, to obtain their final amwer, I was mortified to find them, t0tallv averse to it, or even to a di.vision of our body. I therefore found myself urider the di.sagree2 b'lc. 11<'-""''sity of adopting their plan, whkh was for them to proceed to Tripes Hill, within a mi 1.e and ah alf of Fort Johnson, while the troops under my command were to march bv Johnstown to Coghnawaga, where the whole were to join. and to proceed up the river, to the nose. and from thence to Srone Arabia. We accordingly proceeded and met at the house of Ocn,v Fouda at Coghnawaga. destroying all before us as we marched along. From thence we pror:-eeded tc wirhtn a mile of the nose., where a halt was found absolutely necessary. The tro,>r' :rnd Indians being much fatigued, and in want of refreshment. having marched from six in the morning of the 21st. till ten in the morning of the following day. Some of the Indians and Rangers continued burning and laying waste everything before them until they got above the nose. Mo~t of the inhabitants fled to the opposite shore, with their best effects, securing their boats which prevented our crossing the river, After the men were sufficiently rested and refre~hed. l proposed to move to Stone Arabia. to which the Indians objected. alledging that the troops as well as themselves were too much fatigued to proceed anv further and that the inhabitants had all fled into their forts. with their effects. and that there was nothing left but empty houses which were not worth the trouble of going to burn. lndeed man~ of them moved off with their plunder, with which they were all loaded, before I knew of their intention, l therefore found myself under the necessity of following them. We burned several houses on our return to Johnstown, where we arrived about one.o'clock the same day. After pn,viding pro visions we marched back the same route that we came to the Scotch settlement, The number of houses. barns, mills. etc. burned amounted to about 120. The Indians contrary to my ex pectation, killed onlv eleven men, amoug them Colonel Fisher, Captain Fisher. and another brother, of what rank. I do not know. The persons taken an)()unted to 27. fourteen of them I suffered to return, being either too old or too yo1mg to march and J was induced by earnest de,ire of the Lov a list families left behind, to set at liberty two of the principal prisoners we had taken, in order to protect them from the violence of the people, which they most solemnly promised to do. and in order to make them pay the utmost attenti<'n to their engagements. 1 assured them that the rest of the prisoners should be detained as hostages for the performance of their promise, J also sent a Captain Vanderb back in exchange. for Lieut. Singleton of my Regiment which I hope will meet with your Excellency" s approbation. Vast quamities of flour. bread. Indian rorn, and other provisions were burned, in the houses and in rhe mills. and a great number of arms. cash. etc., was taken. manv cattle were killed and about seventy horses were brought off. One hundred and forty three loyalists, and a number of women and children, with about thirty blacks {male and female) came .off with us. seventeen of the latter belong to Colonel Claus Johnson and myself, Some are claimed by Indians and whitemen who are trying to dispose of them. J sh0ul d therefore be glad to have your Excellency's directions concerning them. 1 enclose your Excellency_ the only papers tha r I could procure, which will show the earl\ intelligence which they had of our approach. I must beg leave to refer your Excellency to CAPTAJ:-l SC:OTT for further particulars. and beg you would excuse the imperfect account of our proceedings. I shali transmit exact return, of the Loyalists and Indians from the Mowhawk Village who have come in by the next post. I beg leave to recommend my cousin Ensign Johnson to your Excellency for the vacancy in the 47th., if not pre engaged, as he was of great service in preventing Indians from commiting many i!regularities which I was apprehensive of, and he has been promised the first vacancy. I must also beg your Excellency will be pleased to - 38 - grant a flag for the relief of the families left in Tiry on County, who may choose to come into this province, which is most earnestly wished for by their husbands and parents. I have the honor to be. with great respect. Yours Excellency's, Most obedient and most humble servant, John Johnson. His Excellency General Haldimand Endorsed from A, 1 780, Sir John Johnson of the 3rd of June, rec'd the 5th. ( 3) The following extract from the Andover Review of May 1889, is taken from the Montreal Star of June 1889. and is here gtven to show the ill treatment of the Loyalists received from the Rebels and the provocation which lead the former to inflict such heavy punishment upon their per5ecutors. "There was naturally persecution of Loyalists during the eight years of strife. Measures were adopted in citizens private committees, and acts in Legislative bodies for punish ment of the crown Tar and feathers. were the usual decree of the mob. and the committees varied it by housebreaking, smoking out. cattle maiming and poisoning, waylaying, insulting. plundering and driving the owner from his estate. or by shutting him up as a prisoner in his neighbor's house. or even in gaol. Legisalative penalties were more dignified, but also more severe presrri.ption confi5cati0n, banishment. imprisonment, transportation with prohibitioi: of returning. attainting ot treason. were the usual awards. It is probable that there was not a white man m the expedition covered by Sir Johnson's report, from the Colonel commanding to the private soldier. who had not suffered one or more of the injuries and in.dignities mentioned in the foregoing extract."

( New Richilieu), extended from the U.S. A. boundary to the Seiganeury of Noy an, two leagues along the River and Lake, and in depth, just to Mississquoi Bay. This grant was ratified by rhe King of France. Nothing was done towards settlement of this tract, until the English conquered Canada, when it became the property of General John Caldwell, and from him was named Caldwell's Manor. In it, during the Revolutionary war, numbers of the U. E. Loyalists. found a Canadian refuge, and at the close of the war, many settled on lands known to have been included in the original Seigneury gram.

On April 30th, 1 7.87, His Excellency pleased to discharge Sir Johnson from the Committee. and to appoint Mr. Findlay in his place. Thursday, March 20th, 1788, Levi Allen, St. John's - presented a petition, November 22, 1786, signed by 2090 persons, asking for lands to make the losses sustained dur ing the late Revolution in America. Mr. Allen calls himself an agent for these people, and asks for land between Lake Memphermagog on the east, _and Bay of Mississquoi on the west, and the line of 45 degrees on the south and the St. Lawrence River on the north.

Colonel Caldwell's letter enclosing petition of Henry Ruter, late Captain of Roger's Corps, and signed by 381 others, loyalists, the greatest number of whom were of Corps that served in Canada in last war and now live between St. John's and Dutchman's point. This petition among other things sets forth that by Gen.- Haldimand' s directions they viewed and examined (at the expense of $50) the lands in the neighborhood of Mississquoi Bay and back eastward toward Lake Memphormagog. They reported that they were satisfied with the soil and situation but they could not obtain the grant they expected. They therefore renew their appli cation and pray for eight miles of front on the line of 45° at or near Mississquoi Bay to extend - 43 - eastward as far as Lake Memphorrnagog.

Claims presented, prior to March 1784 2060 March to December 1'784 128 May and July 1785 122 April 1 1786 140 Later, many others. total said to be 5072, of which 924 failed to make good their claim. South Carolina restored estates of her Loyalists. An allowance of £ 3, 294, 452, also from ~ 200000, to £ 30000 given to widows and orphans. Sir John Johnson's Regiment called the 84th, it was 800 strong. This Corps consisted of two units. One was Major Jessop's Corps stationed at St. John's, the other under Roger's at Oswego (at least a part at Oswego). Members of Major Jessop's C::orps became settlers in and on the St. Lawrence. Roger's men settled in the Bay of Quinte. Both settled in 1784. The 84th was made up chiefly of Dutch from the Mohawk country. There were other Troops beside Jessop's Corps stationed at St. John's. Col. Stephen Burrit served 7 years in Roger's Rangers settled upon the Rideau April 1793. In the same year was born Col. E. Burritt. who was the first white child born north of Rideau. In these days there was a Military Highway from Whitehall, - Lake Champlain,-Fort Ticonderoga, - Plattsburg. thence northward to Cornwall. The American settlers up to 1790, consisted first of disbanded troops, secondly of a nobler class who left the United States, being unwilling to live other than under British rule. RATIONS - Consisted of: clothes for three years, coarse cloth for trousers, Indian blankets for coats. shoes, one axe (a short handled broad axe, which was uselss for cutting down trees,. one hoe, one spade, one plow, one cow for.two families, one whip and one cross cut saw, to every fourth family. A limited number of corn mills, one set of tools for five families. FAMINE - The most distressing time for the Loyalists was the summer of 1789, and the spring and early summer of 1788. (13) MISCELLA'.'-/EOUS 1'iOTES Stamp act passed in 1765, providing for tax on America by British. It was repealed in 1766. but again put into force in 1769. Particular offense taken to tea tax. thanks to smuggling merchants like Samuel Adams. King George III closed the port of Boston, Battle of Lexington in 1775, Some of the Scotts took part on the American (Rebel) side in this fight. A band of Rebel Irregulars attacked the British troops. In 1 774. the Congress urged Canadians to join them in the Revolution. Their request was ignored . In May 1775, Ethan Allen seized Fort Ticonderoga. and Crown Point and St. John"s, Moses Scott (son of Capt. Moses3, Josiah2, William1), took part on the American's side in the,e attacks. This Moses aiso took part in the Bartles of Lexington and Trenton Subsequently Ticonderoga. and Crown Point was repudiated by Congress. and peace restored again. After the Battle of Bunker Hill in 1775, in which the British were successful. Montgomery, in September attacked Canada again, first laying siege to St. John. Major Preston and 700 men, held out against him for seven weeks, and Congress, holding the south shore of the St. Lawrence prevented Carleton's troops from assisting the besieged. In September 1775, All.en, with 150 men. attempted to take Montreal, but Major Carden with 280 men defeated him and took Allen prisoner, after five of his men had been killed. Allen was sent in irons to England. finally St. John capitulated, and Congress troops took Montreal. During this same falLRenedict Arnold marched across country from Cambridge to Quebec City by the way of the .Kennebec River starting out with 1100 men. By the time that he reached Quebec, he had owing to the hardships of the journey. only 800 left. His first loss took place when one of his Company Coii,manders, a Captain Scott disagreed with him over his method of providing supplies. turned hisCompam about and marched back home. As we know Arnolds attack was unsuccess- ful. and when a British boat with 9000 troops arrived at Quebec. l\lontgomery hastily left Montreal. By June 1776. no Congress troops were left east of Sorel. Early in June, General Thompson sailed forth from Sorel, attacking Three Rivers. His attack was unsuccessful for he got helplessly l0St in a swamp. and he with 300 of his men were taken prisoners. The remainder of his troops went back to Sorel, When a short time later th~ Brttish troops .:i.rrived at Sorel they ·found that the Americans had evacuated. In 1 777, General Burgovne was surrounded by ,'l.mei:ican troops and Jndians. at Saratoga. His whole force surrendered, The Declaration of Independence was signed in 1776.

The window had four panes of glass 7 1/2x8 1/2, and the government supplied the rations and clothing for three years. for all who moved up the St. Lawrence from Sorel in May 1784. Those who refused to leave their newly established homes at Mississquoi, Sorel and at points along the Richileu. were out of the ration and supply list. Daniel Scott was among this number.

This is the only document, so far as known that has a list of names of the earliest settlers at the Bay, Dr. Brymer states that he is aware that nearly all served in the Royal :-orces during some part of the Revolution. The date of their arrival is conjectural, but it is - 51 - certain that they were here as early as 1783, and it is very likely that some of them arrived in 1782. They were followed by a continous stream of non combattaamts, which exodus lasted well towards the new century 0 The names of these Loyalists may be found among the lists of Associates to which grants of lands had been made in the different Townships, for at the time Associates were granted lands, a complete survey had been made. and lands set apart for applicants, (23) EXTRACT FROM PROCEEDINGS AND TRANSACTIONS OF ROYAL SOCIETY OF CANADA 1914-15, VOL.

Colonel Clark began his active operations, by creating diversion from the Niagara fronrier to that of Vermont, by landing with 300 volunteers and Militia at Caldwell's Manor, ot~ the shore of Missisquoi Bay, about midnight on October 10 and 11, 1813, apparently for the purpose of taking some of the local militia officers at their homes. Failing in this, some of thelr houses were pillaged by his undisciplined followers. They were then hastily embarked, and wni!e it was still dark. another landing was effected, at the mouth of the Rock River, in the Stare of Vermont. three miles south of the village of Phillipsburg. in the seigneury of Sto Armando In compliance with a recent order, about 100 men of the Fourth Battalion of the Militia of the · Townships. had assembled there two or three days before, under the command of Major Joseph PoweJL They had received so little training, that he declined to arm any but those actually detailed for guard duty O Clark succeeded in surrounding this place, before daybreako The Guard tool< the alarm, and fired a few shots which wounded two of the Americanso A heavy voJJey ,,.as returned. which killed one and wounded three of the guards.

The names Ives aypears in many forms: Ives (Welch). Iver (Gaellic), meaning chief or leader. Ives (Dan!ishl means zeal or fervor. The name also appears in the forms Ivis, Ivett, Ison, Ivers, Ivison, Iveson, Iverson. Iwis. Iratts, Ivy etc. In the old Connecticut records, the name frequently was written Ive, Eve, Eves and Eives. In England. we are told, that the family of Eve or Ive was of great antiquity in the parish of Pancreas, London. In 1252 King Henry VIII, gave Thomas Ives permission to enclose a portion of the highway adjoining his mansion in Kenteffetonne. In the church at this place is the tomb of Robert Eve. and of Lauremia, his sister, daughter of Francis, son of Thomas Eve. Clerk of the Crown, numerous references to various families can be found, some of which are listed in The Ives Family, by Arthur Coon Ives, published in 1928 by the Hungerford Holbrook Company, Watertown. N. Y. Mr. Ives' book is recommended to all particularly who are in terested in the Ives families of the United States. It is fairly well established that the family of Ives, originally St. Ives, took its name from a village on the Seine. Rowliff de St. Ives was a follower of William the Conqueror, and was granted lands in Cornwall for services rendered. Although some claim has been made that Captain William Ives, first of our line to come to America, was a descendant of Gilbert Ives, who crossed the English Channel as a follower of William of Normandy, it is generally assumed th~t he came from the Norfolk County family. Captain William fves was born in 1607, in North~~c'i'land,hire. Following is an extract from Arthur Coon Ives' book which casts further light on the early Ives families: "I\Jear the town of Dives in the Department of Caboodes, in Normandy. is the spot where some believe William of Normandy planned the invasion of England. Here is found the roll of the church of Dives, which roll supposdely sets forth the names of the com panions of William the Conqueror. On this list appear: Ive Taillebois (Ives, the woodcutter), Ive de Vesce2, Archard d"lvri. The last named (Iveri, Rogerus de) appears in the Index of tenants, in the time of William the Conqueror. He is supposed to have descended from Rudolph, half brother of the first Duke of Normandy ( Richard) to whom fell the castel Ivery, on the River r' evre. "Roger. son of Walerande Iverey. was cup bearer to William King of England. He married the daughter of Hugh de Grentemaisnel, one of William's great men ... and fought bravely beside him. He was given many honorable employments and large possessions in Leichester and Northamptonshire. The estate passed to the son Ivo who in the reign of Hemy I took up arms in defence of the title of Robert Duke of >lormandy. When punished for this act, he applied for protection to Robert. Earl of Mellint, one of the King's Councilors. "Despairing of royal favor Ivo planned a pilgrimage to Jerusalem, mortgaging his possessions on condition that his son should marry the daughter of Mellint' s brother, the Earl of Warwick. Tvo died on the journey, and his son was disappointed both in his wife and his in - heritance." From references to English will, the following have been set forth in Arthur Coon Ives book John Ives of Soham Tonve owned Woodhows Manor. in the County of Norfolk. His property was left to Thomas Ives. his son and heir. John died in 1568 when Thomas was nineteen years and nine months old. The will of Wiliiam Rawson of the town of Northampton, proved 1604, names "my - 1 - cousin William Ive". The early New England records show the names of three Ives men, William. John and Josepho It is thought that John and Joseph arrived at a later date than William, our pre decessor. John Ives' name is shown on a list of those who came to New England before May 1669; on the basis of Farmer's Register, by James Savage (Little, Brown & Company, Boston, 1860). The Canadian branch of the Ives family are descendants of William. No attempt has been made to trace the descendants of his brothers. On September 19, 1635, William Ives, then twenty-eight, after taking the Oath of Allegiance was accepted as a passenger 011 the sailing vessel Truelove, bound for New England. Following is a list of the ship's passengers, as shown in the Arthur Coon Ives' book: '.'Jame Status Years Name Status Years Thomas Burcherd, 40 Roger Broome ' 17 laboring man Dorothv Lowe 13 Mary Burchard 38 Jo, Simpson 30 flizabeth Burchard 13 Tho.

Sedgwick 24 As to the status of William Ives at this time, no record exists to indicate whether he was an immigrant. religious exile, political rebel, apprentice. serving man, or just one of the others who went to the American plantations at that time. ln any case he became one of the select group of influential and well-to-do Londoners who helped to establish the colony. Excepting one William Preston, none oi his fellow passengers appear with him on the ~ew Haven Civil Compact or as Freeman of the Courte of New Haven. Neither his future wife nor either of his brothers ca me over on the Truelove. - 2 - For three years after his arrival in Boston, his movements are unkown. He may have lived near Watertown, Mass •. where Miles Ives lived in 1639. It was there that he met those men of wealth, education and influence, with whom he was later closely associated. On June 20, 1637 a company of Puritans led by Rev. John Davenport and Theophilus Eaton arrived from England in the ship Hector and her consort and found conditions at Boston not to their liking. William Ives joined them, and with them on March 30, 1638, left Boston in search of a suitable spot to establish a new colony. Conditions in England leading up to the immigration of the Puritans to New England are described in the following lines taken from Mary Hewitt's Notes on the United States of America, Volume I. "In the early part of the 17th century, although the Reformation Period as we know it in England had passed, there were many Puritans of the communistic type to whom the despotic methods of Charles were obnoxious. who with the idea of establishing a colony, where they as true children of God. might live and excell in holiness. The wilderness was planted with their churches and the woods rang with their Psalms." "On August 5, 1620, the Mayflower with 102 souls aboard, sailed from Southampton, and on December 11, arrived at Plymouth Rock, a passage which took sixty-three days. In 1637, The Hector, also carrying Puritan immigrants left for America lead by Theophilus Eaton and the Rev. John Davenport. Theophilus Eaton was a man of wealth who at one time had acted as England's ambassador to Denmark. He was the son-in-law of Bishop Colton of Chester. Bishop Colton. a friend of Rev. Davenport, had previously emigrated to New England, and had converted the Rev. Davenport to Puritanism. In a letter which he wrote to Davenport, he stated that "the new order of things established in New England, brought to his mind the new heaven and new earth where dwelt righteousness." "Cotton, like many other Puritans believed that England's Reformation had only half accomplished its purpose. and that it was impossible to reform an imperfect reformation. His expressed object in New England was to establish a perfectly organized church, and an ideal community. Rev. Davenport was an eminent divine of London who also had been an ambassador for his country to Denmark. These two men assisted by many of Davenport's congregation, set • out with visions of establishing a commercial station as well as a select church. "After sailing out of Boston Harbor, the Hector with her band of ardent people cruised southward for two weeks. searching for a suitable spot for their purpose. They found it at a point where the Quinnipiac river flows into Long Island Sound. Entering this fair haven, they anchored their boat under a large oak tree growing on the bank of a small stream, since filled in. called West Creek. and thus began the settlement of New Haven. "On April 15, 1638. the Puritan Fathers gathered for their first Sabbath service and standing under the great oak tree Rev. Davenport preached from the text of }vfatthew IV: L "The temptation of the wilderness". On the following day came fasting and prayer, preparatory to the drawing up and signing of a solemn compact called the Plantation Covenant. Sixty-three men. including William Ives IWili Eues). signed the document agreeing that in all matters which concerned the gatherirrg and ordering of the church, choice of magistrates and officers and things of like nature, they would be guided by the rules of the scriptures. The Holy Bible was to be their guide in all matters. " Following is the list of the signatures, Mr. Theoph.

In those days the ·, E'' and 'T. as well as "u" and "v · were used interchangeably, To Arthur C, [ves. who spent years in search of information relative to the American branches ,.1.f ,he Jves fa mil: . we are indebted for a verbatnm description of the Purtian planters' inauguratwn of the civil government for their colony ··acrording to God". at their meeting held June 4. 1638. at Quinnipiac, · After solemne invocation of the name of God, in prayer, for the help of his spirit and grace in those weighty businesses they were reminded of the business wherof they mett, - for tht ,:establishment of civil order as might be most pleasing unto God. and for christening of the 'i.trest men for the foundaco worke of a church to be gathered. For the better inabeling them w d1scer11.e the mind of God and to agree accordingly concerning rhe civil order, Mr. Davenport propounded divers quaeres to them,,, ·· Mr, Robt, :s.;ewman was intreated to write in carracters and to read distinctly and audibh , , , what was propounded,,, · Quaere l. Whether the scripture doe holde forth a perfect rule for the directio and government of all men in all duties wich they are to performe to God. and men as well in the govrmr of fa my lyes and comonwealths as in matters of the chur, ·· This was assented to by all, no man dissenting as was expressed by the holding up of hands, , , , " Ordered that all who were hereafter received as planters should also submit to the foundarnentall agreemt. and testifie the same by subscribeing their names under the names of the aforesaid planters ... , ·• The original settlement was laid out in the form of a square with sides one-half mile long. astride the "Quin-Nippe-Ohke" long watering place, In the center of the plot was a market place. now the ~ew Haven Green around which were ''house lotts'' and farmland for each "free planter". A map bearing the date of 1641 indicates that William Ives received: in the first division 6 i/4 acres, in the neck, l 1/4 acres: meadow. 2 1./4 acres, land in the second division 9 acres The land was brought from the Indians, There is no record of any Crown Grant. the Crown not being acknowledged. The planters and Indians. for some vears. lived in peace and harm.onv. but the rights of the whites were rigoroush enforced, The Indians accepted as payment for the land so acquired; 12 coats of English tuckmg cloth. 12 alchemy spoons. 12 hatchets. 12 hoes, 24 knives, 12 porrirrgers and four cases of French knives and scissors, On June 4, 1639, the fundamental agreement of Quinnipiac was drawn up between the planters and members of the Eaton Davenport Company and the Indian Sachem Momangin, The chief convenanted not to disturb or injure the English. while they were bound to protect the tribe, and to allow them the use of their lands for hunting and tillage, On December 11. 1639 another large area was deeded to the Eaton Davenport Associates by the Indian chief Montowese. De Bnces' Short History of the Canadian People states, "Taken altogether. in Con necticut lived the happiest and most prosperous and contented people of all the Atlantic States. This arose largely from the respectability and upright character of the first settlers, While - 4 - Massachusetts was representative of an outspoken and somewhat quarrelsome non-conformity, Connecticut was the home of the more quiet and peaceful, though none the less determined, type of Puritan." These New Haven settlers were the most opulent to arrive from England. Eaton had brought with him much money, and tradition to this day speaks of the amount of valuable plate, "of a sewer and basin weighing 60 pounds, double gilt and curiously wrought with gold which his wife had been presented, by the East Indian Company. Thus affluent and favored by providence, towns spring up around the colony and along the shores, each like the parent New Haven. William Ives married Hannah...... Their marriage must have taken place at the same time, as the founding of the New Haven Colony, for tlie 1639 census indicates there were then two members, in this Ives family. William Ives' name appears on the church roll in 1641 as No, 69; Hannah's in 1646 as No. 149. After William's death, about 1649, Hannah married Dr. William Bassett. Among the minutes of the townspeople of New Haven, Will Ives appears as one of the town freemen. In the fundamental Agreement his name is spelled Will Eues. Later Will Ives and Edward Bannister were named as viewers for the suburbs. One record shows that Brother Ives appeared for military training "wanting a scourer" and Brother Mitchell was reported as "wanting a gun stick". Both were fined sixpence. At a court held on February 5, 1639, William"kves with others was appointed "to ripen Goodman Tap's business against the next court, and received the charge of a freeman. One authority fixes the residence of William Ives as 72-160 Congress St., New Haven. His last will dated April 3, 1648, named his good wife executrix and custodian of all his property for use in bringing up his four small children. To his oldest son he bequeathed his house and land. when he came of age. Provision was also made for the other three children. On June 6, 1648 Richard Miles and Roger Allen were appo'iited to appraise his estate, and at the court in New Haven on November 7, the first American Ives Will was probated. On that same day it is recorded that Hannah married Dr. William Bassett, who during the period March 1646 to June 1648, had lost his first wife. The court ruled that this marriage in no way changed the provisions of William Ives' Will, His property was valued at ninety-eight pounds, four shillings.

CHAPTER VI THE CANADIAN BRA::-.JCH OF THE IVES FAMILY The motive behind the emigration to Canada in 1793 of the three [ves men, Joseph, Joel Hall and Eli Ives, of Meriden, Connecticut. is not known. Since the arrival from England of their progenitor. William Ives in 1635. four generations of Ives had been born. John !ves5, the father of Joseph6 and Joel Hall6, enlisted in Capt. Hough's company of the Tenth Regiment (rebel). He had three sons. ten. eight and two years old, It may have been that after the signing of the Declaration of Independence in 1 783, bitter feelings caused by the unreasonable and overbearing attitude of King George UI were forgotten by many of his former subjects. and they were willing to return to British rule. The lves who settled in the East Townships were not statutory United Empire Loy a lists. The British government's representative. Lord Simcoe, in 1789 ordered the preparation of list of all refugees who during the previous five years had left the United States. Known as the United Empire Loyalist List, it consisted of those persons entitled. on becoming of age. to the same privileges granted to their fathers. No Eastern Township Ives appear upon it. (See Scott section of this manuscript). Caniff' s History of Settlemem of Upper Canada states that up to 1790 American settlers in Canada consisted first of disbanded troops and secondly of a "nobler'' class who left the United States unwilling to live other than British rule. Joseph. Joel and Eli Ives ma;, be assumed to come ut1der this second grouping. After 1791 the Eastern Townships were opened up for common soccage. and grants vvere made to groups whose leaders made application to Governor General Simcoe, at Chateau St. Louis. Quebec. Before any grant was approved, each associate was required to rake the oath of allegiance to His Majesty King George HI. Only those applicants whose loyalty was unquestionable, were given lands adjoining the American border. The questionable settlers were allotted to areas farther north. In 1807 Joseph Ives was commissioned a captain in the Third Battalion of the Town ships militia and was still serving in 1826, His brother Joel Hall Ives was appointed justice of peace and commissioner to administer oaths of allegiance. 1806-1812. Although the Ives families arrived il1 Canada in 1 793 it was not until 1802 that by special order of the Lt. - Governor in council that CoL Hem\ Cull. an English officer. and Ebenezer Hovey. a Connecticut Yankee and thirty three associates were granted their request for a statutory grant of 1,200 acres of land each. These grants covered 23,943 acres. Col. Cull assumed responsibility for the north half, and Hovey for the south. The Township of Hatley, consis~ o: 2348 lots was one of five townships formed at that time. The others were Barnston, Barf~, Stanstead and Magogo The five made up the County of Stanstead.

QuetJec. at the residence of the Governor-General, April 18, 17920 According to documents of an Abbe Paquin 1.1791-184C,.' 110\, in tr:e Dominion Archive, at Ottavca. the prese1,t town of Hatley was the site of the Tnd1ai1 village of Sokokis where Mohican and Algonquin tribe members livedo Abbe Paquin states that in 1695 the Iroquois destroyed the village and killed nearly all the inhabitants. during one of their plundering expeditions. Those who "ere fortunate enough to escape. placed themselves in the hands of the Abenequis. The Abenequis and the survivors, built a second village of St. Fiancis. but probablv not at the same site.

October 10, 1841, who in 1930 on her 89th birthdav was as active and mentally alert as she ever was, is the one to whom thanks must be given for providing details of the life of the first Canadian Ives settlers. Toel and Joseph Ives of Meriden, Conn, . made their first journey into Canada in 1792. They liked the country, and made a start on the conmuction of two log cabins before returning to Meriden. The following season, accompanied by their women, who insisted upon seeing their proposed new homes before migrating. the Ives men returned on horseback to com plete the cabins. All four rode back to Meriden. loaded their chattels and Joseph's baby son, Harley. into sleighs and set out again ,for Canada. There was at the time a fairly good trail from i'vleriden to Bennington, Vt., ti.a Burlington. thence north ro Phillipsburg and Frelisburg, Quebec. From Frelisburg they travelled east and north through Dunham and Bolton townships, then east across Lake Memphermagog to their new cabins. The route from Frelisburg extended across trackless forest. The party had to clear its own road through very deep snovv. The women and children suffered greatly. From Frelisburg to their cabins. two and a half miles north of what is now Georgeville. the journey rook seven days. Ry the end of the third ay they had run our of bread, They baked more by using flat rock slabs as an oven. Reds were made in the sleds for the women, The men slept on spruce boughs laid in the snow. and the horses, out of fodder. grazed in the snow. The log cabins served as houses for several years after the families arrived. First beds were spruce and hemlock boughs on the floors, covered with woollen blankets. Letter. when grain straw and corn husks were available, these materials were used for filling for bed ,icJ,s .. laid on a network of thongs stretched across hardwood frames. The frames were set on legs so that duriog the day the youngsters' trundle beds could be shoved under them out of the way. Refore the first settlers of the Lake Memphermagog district were able to clear the large maple. birch and beech trees from their land. they obtained almost everything needed for food from the forest and streamo The\' found specl<:Jed trout in the brool-:s, shad. maskinonge and salmon 111 the lakes_ From the hills back of the lake wild game was plentiful and wild plums cranberries. currants and goo~eberrie,. mulberries. iaspberries and blackberries grew in profusion. After the giant hardwood trees had been felled and burned their ashes were used for making lye and potash. The potash was sold to Montreal buyers and lye was used at home to make soap. Gardens furnished potatoes. beans and peas. Good crops of wheat corn and buck wheat also were produced in the new. rich soil. Because it could be turned more read il,- into food. corn was grown more extensively than any other grain Uno mill was available after cuttrng the kernels were broken Indian-style vvith a stone tied to a spring pole. operated by hand over a hollowed hardwood stump. After the com had been gathered, it was partially husked. braided and hung up to dry. Corn huskings were social events in which all of the young folk took part_ lncentive to spur the efforts of at least the male workers. was the rule which gave anv young man finding a colored kernel on his cob. the privilege of kissing all ladies present, Wnh cornmeal cakes (Johnny Cakesl cornmeal porridge.

Infant mortality was high. Pioneer women were versed in the virtues of the man1 herbs that grew in the woods and meadows. including Yarrow, snakeroot. gold thread goldenrod and plantin. as well as the catnip,tansv, sage and pennyroyal. which grew in their gardens. Although Joseph and Joel Hall lves came to Canada in 1792. it was not until later that they were able to obtain the 1, 200 acres allotted to them by the government. In 1802 the brothers laid the foundations for their future family homes. both of which were still standing in - j ' good condition in 1940 on the Magog -Georgeville road, opposne Lord's Isl an cl, Joseph Ives· home ~tands facing the highway on the west side of the road on lot :2, range i 7 ;:1 the Township of Magogo Joel Hall Tves' residence until it burned i:: 19-lc;, ~tcod on the ea,r :;ide of the highway about one half mile farther north, on lot 3_ rani,e 1 ~ To\\nship 01 0.lagogo All materials used in these homes were obtained from the immediate localitv o '.'\ails were forged at the sites, and the bricks were made in a kiln, noffr~m the lake shoreo ·This A. kiln could still be see11 in 18980 To provide lumber the Ives men built a11d operated a saw mill at Lovering Pond_ At this mill it is said that John Ives. their father, was accidently killedo In the little graveyard now standing beside the small frame schoolhouse on the west side of the highway about midway between the Ive, homes, weather-beaten tomb stones bear 1,. irness to those who lived and died in that community O !\lost of the stones bear lves name so Both of the Ives men built homes on similar planso They were well lighted, and each had <:-ight fireplaces, Workmanship of the highest order is evident, particularly in the panelling at•d about the fireplaces.

David Chamberlain and Joseph and Joel Hall Jves Cape Copp built a large scow which ne used as a toll ferry between his place and Kno\\'lton, Landing, then the east end of trails extending to Waterloo. Sc Cesaire and Montreal and to '\fo. As time went on Capto Copp found his ferry scow inadequate and in 1832 hi, son Joshua_ in partnership with Levi Biglow built what was called the · Haut B01.

George Fuch Copp, the first white child born in Stanstead To,, nshipo George Fitch Copp - 18 - was named after Colonel Ebenezer Fitch's son George. who with his tather erideavored to form a companv of associates to occupy lands in Stanstead Township. Colonel Fbenezer came from Windham Conn, and filed the first petition for lands in Stanstead in 1 778, In 1 792. under new legislation. rhis land was given to lsaac Ogden and his associates. as both Colonel Fi.tch and his son George had died in the interim, Fitrh Rav was named after Colonel Fitch, Other settlers in Stanstead at this time were Johnson Taplin who sen led 011 Stanstead Plains in 1 796. Messrs. Lee, Moml. Hubbard. Nash, Hibbard Mansur. Rogers. Young. Reiter, Bodwell, Magoon. Peasleye and Merriman, In 1876. · The Lady of the Lake". a steel-hulled boat, built at the Clyde shipyards in Scotland. was assembled and launched at l,1agog, With the Mountain Maid still in operation the social life of the residents was greatly broadened by summer visitt from \lewport. Vermont, and the states of New Hampshire. Massachusetts and Connecticut. on To accommodate these visitors. the Camperdown. and later the Elphantis hotels were built at Georgev1Ile. The coach road which in 1817 extended from Derhy Line north through Stanstead to Copps Ferry and from Knowlton·5 Landing to Waterloo. St. Cesaire and Montreal, was graduallv improved as years went by, The old Jnd.ian trail used by natives coming up the St, Francis River and the Magog River thence along the ea~t shore to Copp'~ Ferry. was also improved southward to the Connecticut River, Thi, route paralled the almost-all water route used by Abeneqms Indians from the outlet of Memphermagog up-lake to the mouth of the Clyde River in Vermont up this river as far as Rock lsland. thence across country to the Connecticut River. The Lady of the Lake continued to ply back and forth between Magog and :---iewport, stopping at the numerous wharfs and landings until 191: when her owners, the Allan Steamship Company scrapped her, She was replaced by the Anthernis. which now operates during the tourist seasons, The first school at Georgeville was established in 1818 by Ralph Merry Jr,. its first teacher.

FAMILY OF HENRY FARWELL1 Henry Farwell the oldest son of William Farwell and his second wife Miss Cole, was born at Boston, Lincoln Co., England about 1605. He like his father was a tailor. On 16 April 1629, he married Olive Welby at Boston, Lincoln Co. , England in St. Boltoph' s Church, Their three oldest children were born in England, the three younger in America. (1) Elizabeth2 born 9 June 1633, buried 20 June 1633. (2) Samuel2 , born 9 June 1633, buried 20 June 1633. (3) John2 born October 1635 at Boston, Eng. In 1636 Henry, with his wife Olive and two children, emigrated fo New England, settling at Concord, Mass. where three more children were born: - (4) Ensign Toseph2 . born at Concord 26 February 1640. Married Hannah Leonard, (5) Mary2 , born 1642 at Chelmsford. Married John Bates 22 December 1665, had six children. (6) Olive2 , born 1645 at Concord. Married Benjamin Sparling, 30 October 1668, had five children. Information relating to the life of Henry, after he came to New England is meagre, but his name is found in early Concord records. Concord was founded in the same year that he arrived, on the tidewater of the Charles River. It is supposed to be the oldest town in America. Its Indian name was Musketquid, or "grass ground". The land on which Concord was built was, according to Governor Winthrop, originally granted to a Mr. Bulkley, undoubtedly the Rev. Peter Bulkley, and a merchant, Simon Willard. The first settlers were twelve or fourteen families, whose names owing to destruction of Concord records are unknown. In the fall of 1636 Rev. John Jones arrived with another party of Englishmen. After living in their new homes for a few months, these Puritan fathers found that their land which bordered the river, as well as some of the uplands were subject to flooding. Their petition to the general court for more suitable ground was granted. Their first dwellings consisted of holes burrowed in the hillside, with earth taken from the excavation thrown aloft on to timbers at entrances. A smokey fire built at the back of the dugout provided warmth. The overhead covering was quite satisfactory in fair weather, but when heavy rains fell, con ditions were far from pleasant. When the yield of their first harvest turned out to be very scanty, one writer says "They had to cut their bread very thin for a long season". On 5 July 1636, the Rev. Peter Bulkley was ordained as their pastor and the Rev. Jones was made an Elder. Henry Farwell was a member of this first church. He, with others became a freeman in Massachusetts Bay Colony, and took the oath of allegiance 14 March 1638-9. In 1655 Henry removed from Concord to Chelmford. His new home , . to have been located on the Billerica Road. Before the introduction of bells in the new country, drums were used to summon worshippers. Among the accounts listed for payment by the Chelmsford church officials in 1659 was " payment for a drum to Henry Farwell. 4. 5s .. ". At a church meeting held on 16 September 1660, Thomas Hinchman and Henry Farwell were chosen as deacons, - 2 - Brother Hinchman was made responsible for keeping the box, book, and accounts of contribution, Brother Kemp was to provide bread and wine and Brother Farwell to take charge of linen and pewter. His name appears on a petition asking for a permit to trade with the Indians. His will dated 12 July 1670, bequeathed his possessions to his wife and children. They consisted of: - 2 oxen Brassware 2 swine Pewter 5 cows Linen 2 heifers Bedsteads 1 steer Bedding 1 mare Woodenware 2 calves Apoons Bolts of cloth and tailor's tools Musket, sword and buckler Tables and sofa Tools, shears. goose, scales and weights Spinning wheels Chairs, chests and tables Flax and corn House on 1 acre lot 20 acres of meadow. 4 acres of orchard Wilderness land House and property at Concord was willed to his son, John, who was to pay his mother 40 shillings per year. Henry died at Chelmsford 1 August 1670. His wife died on 4 March 1691-2, Olive Welby came from a very old and influential English family, records of such exist as far back as 1066. Roger de Welby5 de Moulton' swill was proven in 1410 and is now to be found in the registry of the Cathedral of Lincoln. In it he bequeathed his best beast to the vicar, and sets forth the number of masses to be said for his soul for the two years following his decease. His estate he willed to his wife and sons Richard de Punchebeck, Richard, and Allard, and to Rev. Case, Rector of East Betham. Roger de Welby was High Sheriff of Co. Lincoln in 1397 and his heir Richard of Multon was the "knight of the shire" for Lincoln in 1421. His grandson was Richard of Multon - 1465. Henry's wife Olive Welby born about 1604 was the daughter of Richard Welby and his wife Francis Bulkley. and grandaughter on her mother's side of Edward Bulkley. D. D., and Olive Illsy of Lincoln. Her mother's sister, Elizabeth married Richard Whitingham, whose will is dated 1615. Her mother's brother Rev. Peter Bulkley married Jane Allan daughter of Thos. of Soldington, nephew of the then Lord Mayor of London. Peter Bulkley emigrated to New England in 1635. He had a son Rev. Edw. Bulkley. born 1614. Following is a list of Olive's brothers and sisters: - (1) Thomas, baptized at Whadpole 1597. Mayor of Boston 1635. Indicted for high treason for having joined with Parliament against Charles I in 1643. (2) Anne, baptized at Moulton 1600. (31 Antony, baptized at Whadpole 1602, buried 1603. (4) Olive, baptized at Moulton 1604. Married Henry Farwell 16 April 1629. (5) Edward, baptized 1609. The crest granted to Rychard Welbye by Clarencieux, King of Arms. 21 March 1562 ( 5th year of Elizabeth's reign). reads as follows: - "Upon the Heaulme on a wreath and sables, an armed arme, the hande charriell yisuinge, owt of a clowde azure in a flame of fyre, - 3 - mantellid gules, doubled argent as more playnele apearith depicted yn, this margent". The shield markings are described as follows: - Sable, a fess twixt three fleur de Largent. That William Farwell and his son Henry were respected in their community in Boston, is evidenced by entries found in the minutes of the Council of Burrough of Boston, Lincolnshire. recording his appointment as "servant of the mace·• on 2 June 1631, Three days later on account of poor health he resigned. Another entry dated 24 December 1635, records the appointment of Henry Farwell as a ·•servant at the mace". Three days later he also resigned, no doubt because of the nearness of his emigration to America. In the Welby of Moulton line were the worthies listed below: - Roger de Welby, High Sheriff for C<'>. of Lincoln 1397 Richard Welby M. P. Lincolnshire 1422 Richard Welby M. P. 1450-2 Richard Welby, High Sheriff 1471 and M. P. 1472-7 Richard Welby, High Sheriff 1487 Thomas Welby, High Sheriff 1491 In the early part of the 17th century the Welby family lost prestige, but later made peace with the Crown. One branch particularly in favor was able to purchase back part of the original estate.

On 5 September 1 724 when two Dunstable townsmen named Blanchard and Cross failed to return from their work of gathering pitch, a search parry was organized, composed of eleven townsmen, including Lieut. Josiah Farwell4 and his uncle Oliver Farwell4• The leader of the party was one Ebeneazer French, a blustering man who apparently lacked experience in Indian warfare. On reaching the spot in the woods were Blanchard and Cross had been working, it was found that the turpentine barrels used by them had been very recently hacked by an axe so that the contents were still slowly flowing out of the containers. In the light of part experience Lieut. Josiah advised French that as the work of destruction was probably that of Indians who at that moment could not be very far away, it was advisable to proceed very cautiously. Ebeneazer French who was none too friendly with Josiah disregarded the suggestion and called upon the party members to follow him if they were not afraid. Lieut. Josiah followed, but with the caution which the situation demanded. French led the ].ittle band along the banks of the Potomae River. As they approached the junction of the rive'\-tfanticook Brook, Indians sprang from hiding and killed every man in the party exeept Josiah, who after firing a few rounds beat a hastly retreat. Although closely followed, he managed to reach the settle ment, Later the bodies of the slain men were brought to Dunstable for burial, Eight of them were buried in a single grave and three separately. On one of the three separate tomb stones appears the inscription "Here lies ye body of Oliver Farwell who died September ye 5th 1724, in ye 33rd year of his age." Lieut. Josiah4, the one survivor was a son of Capt. Henry3 Farwell and grandson of Ensign Joseph2. The place where the attack took place was afterwards named Thornton's Ferry. After the massacre of the Dunstan townsmen, John Lawrence, Joseph Farwell and Johnathan Robins petitioned the General Assembly for permission to raise a Military Company for the purpose of punishing the Indian Tribe responsible for the killings. Permission was granted and John Lovell was made Captain and Josiah Farwell Lieutenant. - 8 - In a fight at Peqwacket the Dunstan Company was beaten. Josiah was shot through the stomach. His men wanted to carry him away with them, bot he insisted on being left to enable the remainder to retreat as quick as possible. After providing .him with a make shift shelter. and making him as comfortable as possible the survivors got away. In the spring of the following year when they returned to the spot which he had marked with a handkerchief tied to a tree, they found his body and buried it nearby in the forest.
